# Huge crowds were marching in major American cities on Saturday, while smaller gatherings sprang up across the country for “No Kings” protests against President Donald Trump’s administration. CNN said the more than 2,500 events drew millions of attendees. Organisers say Trump is leading an increasingly militarised and authoritarian regime. Sweeping ICE raids and troop deployments in Democrat-led states have intensified the outrage. The protests came against the backdrop of a federal government shutdown, with the White House locked in a standoff with Democrats over a funding bill.
